scandal which ignited a powder keg of bantu of merican sentiment which experts say has been brewing for years. but very a warm welcome to you from all of us here at r.t. moscow rory sushi in russia's opposition the house that gathered for what is expected to become its first large demonstration since june for the first time the government movement is joined by the public sector workers you could be looking at live pictures right here from central moscow certainly authorities have a cleared the way to allow for twenty five thousand people to attend we understand that certain of security measures are in place with seven hundred thousand law enforcement officers are stationed across the city for security are we covering this live here at all see also an artsy dot com and in the very near future. here

on the program will join our correspondent. who is right on the front line of these ongoing at demonstrations here in central moscow. for now figure and protests by muslims have gone global on the fifth straight day as demonstrators clashed with police outside the u.s. consulate in sydney over in yemen security forces are fired warning shots to disperse a fresh more gathering near the american embassy and in the u.s. itself the alleged creator of the controversial. film which sparked the protests has been questioned by authorities. in a call is suspected of violating his probation after being released from prison last year after doing time for financial crimes meanwhile unrest also continues in egypt where police pushed demonstrators out of to rear square and away from the u.s. embassy on saturday parties paula syria has the latest. on the situation certainly is a lot calmer and quiet take here in front of the american embassy in cairo the call

has been pushed back we want out of this area although there are still a few hundred on saturday morning but certainly nothing like the scenes we were witnessing over the past few days here is still a fairly sustained so tear gas in the area if you look behind me you will see the security barrier that the security forces pulled on friday morning and this was to try and stop protest is reaching the american embassy which is just on the other side i spent several hours more time in that mine and because they simply no way to run to all the shops of barricaded the windows as well as the doors that the hotels in the area have closed down that continues pretty frightening when you have protesters on the one side telling these huge chunks of glass and concrete at the security forces who were firing constant rounds of tear gas overnight there was also an attack by forces on an american base in the afghanistan problem helmand now at least two u.s. movies were killed the militants many stale beat out. security perimeter i know

that this is also the base where the british police to me was stationed but that he managed to go on home and there have also been protests taking place is on the field as australia with several hundred protesters chanted messages such as down down the u.s. state of mississippi this into a gas to disperse those crowds the demonstrations are now spreading like wildfire across north africa and the middle east of course the anger being expressed on the streets is anger against this american made film that that mocks prophet muhammad we've seen demonstrations in value the dish in malaysia in gaza also in iraq in sudan at least three people are known to have died in demonstrations in the capital city of khartoum these took place when protesters tried to reach the american embassy and to that end the united states is sending the means to back up security where the german as well as the british embassies were also under attack in yemen with hearing that if these people have been killed to their inspirations their u.s.

marines have other wives any capital city of summit to try and diffuse the situation in tunis we've hearing that if these two people have died this happened when crowds scaled the rules of the american embassy and managed actually to get inside the compound basically fire on some of the keys inside the compound and at the same time they set fire on an american school or even across to them on at least one person there has died where a chain restaurant they might fire a massive columns of course at the gathering not only there in the northern the city of tripoli the distance frisson of anger in the capital city of beirut at the same time if you think maybe over the five years up to that point to say the american ambassador as well as me personally and me to begin this mission there has been a terrorist the united states as well as the minute for at least have an opening to enter this today should there have made several arrests and we hearing from them that they believe that this has. the telltale signs of al qaeda and several who

have seen al qaeda linked demonstrations elsewhere in the region says at this moment in this incredibly volatile. obvious policy reporting right meantime author and journalist afshin rattansi believes the western backlash was a long time coming and it's not going to end anytime soon and now twenty different countries terrible hear about the deaths of people that are sensibly over this ridiculous film but as to where diplomatic relations lie the leaders of those countries will be telling washington if they indeed have relations with washington . and it seems like the chicken is going on to roost it's difficult to see how it could have been alerted the people who made her feel she designed this to happen we don't have fire in a granny creating the crowded theater is in effect the arab world the global south countries that have been devastated by centuries of colonialism of those decades of us imperialism and will be doing their mommas policies in the last five years have

been so. debilitating to so many millions of people it's not a case of activism as such it was a broad array of people who detest us imperialism and you know we can expect more and more to follow and more catalysts on whether we have crazy film or one of a president obama or president romney's crazy foreign policy ideas because. he will not be the only diplomat. presumably they will be targeted and it's not a good time now for u.s. diplomats around the world. as the continues to unfold throughout the arab world are we doing so with our t. dot com with the protest timeline and in-depth analysis as well as the full profile of the man behind the scandalous anti muslim film you can log on to find out more.

now washington is struggling to contain the scandal condemning the controversial film while calling for calm but it's all these guys can reports the anti-american fury has deeper roots than a simple reaction to a you tube clip. as angry mobs in muslim countries stormed u.s. embassies and burned american flags the u.s. president delivers yet another speech about how good americans intentions really are and have been in the muslim world america's a friend that we care not just about our own country not just about our own interests but about theirs that even as voices of suspicion mistrust seek to divide countries and cultures from one another the united states of america will never retreat from the world. we will never stop working for the dignity and freedom that every person deserves it could be that the obama administration thinks

by supporting revolutions by fostering regime change washington is winning the hearts and minds of the people in that part of the world but we sent events showed that's not quite so if you look at poll numbers that gauge public attitude towards the u.s. in different muslim countries u.s. approval rating is the same as it was under president george w. bush in some countries like pakistan it's much worse and these numbers have nothing to do with the infamous film but they do have something to do with us policies you know we can rap any kind of purple finger revolution we want people to have democracy and have freedom but at the end of the day when we look at the results of what's been accomplished over two decades of being in this region destabilizing the region we have hundreds of millions of people who are the in a lot of cases had their world turned upside down and in many cases they've had relatives that have been killed in this process and we're building enemies towards this country and you know it i think that there's a need for a major wake up call in the west especially the united states the way the

administration is trying to somehow contain the blowback over this same type islamic film is by bashing the film and saying that they too find it disgusting but now it's clear to pretty much everyone that it's not just about the film this rage against the united states has been brewing for a while and it seems it needed just us bark to blow up and the film tragically provided that spark need ministrations soothing words about democracy don't seem to help much in putting out the flame of rage now sweeping across the arab world in washington i'm going to. and the u.s. made film also offended the most of them community right here in russia which makes up around fifteen percent of the population however no protest rallies are being held in the country some of russia's muslim officials have condemned the anti american riots abroad but the head of russia's republic of chechnya so. violence will not be tolerated but i'm drunk as you did however condemn the film stressing

that those behind it are the ones responsible for the killing of innocents by angry protesters. it's good to have you with us here in our to today let's get back to our top story right now russia's opposition has gathered for what is expected to become its first large demonstration since june and for the first time the government movement is joined by public sector workers aussies are going to going to go to the frontline joins us now live good to see you are enough if this protest you think in any way different from the ones we saw earlier this year before the summer ultimately. actually doesn't affect the yes indeed because this time around it's not just. down

with the government of the day we're staying but now there are a lot more steps on the issues that are on the front of the resume and there's a lot more calls because the mandate you case reform which a lot of people i think the likes of the next eliminate. the possibility of russia losing a lot of people to saying that more and more moderate on the scene you know that in two words education in our society and six dollars eased out of the health care there's also a very very even if you push here hard again for someone to launch this help me now to examine the new law minority to this means that every person not deliberate disobedience in the political side of the country can be sponsored with money abroad will be a subject to the roof financial investigation a lot of people here in coming out now there's also a matter of one in the same thing with deputies who wonder that i think you really think you could turn to god just to. today is no on the family for overstepping his eldest son thomas but she insists the one with the opposition activists the

constant is down the unseasonable when the opposition really wide range of issues and really wide range of groups of people represented here today they were down as you say it is a wide range of issues there and i do apologize i was very very noisy where you are the most but if you could tell us though is it still issues of demond political change are they still a big part of the agenda or not. not a salute to the indeed there have been yet again of course that people criticizing this and also saying that there was a public since listening to the these things and then really considering their legs systems to the parliament and i'm really it's alexis's well they're shillings and it's not the only. barrier. to this is the two legs of the business elections were a fraud of the law so they're still carrying on the downslope because well but there's still so much that wide range of the mother mrs wix if they are covering for example such as that that was the right time was going on it was not just this

summer didn't seem remember is our. elected that because. here is the fourth biggest of all prayer and the christ did christ a lot of people are tying down along the way the government thinks they may have actually been jailed for expressing and their political view and nonsupport i think it was religious freedom. on a sunday as you say as you say there are people who are attending this with different agendas a different forms of issues to oppose but what about the people themselves what kind of people are making up the opposition. actually have a word like i said with a lot of different groups not many culture nationalists they're actually some of the loudest so i saw the loudest group here there so the force that those who are fighting for it can live in the right in the country there is teaching is there still a lot of new things. we start with posters then that. they close attention to each

piece and there's also people coming down the hill to start with the specter of the opposition of the lot of this is. the very same they're holding down the work of satan and they're promising to walk again literally. march happening it isn't just one of the opposition leader's. office right now this is a. chance. this is it if people don't believe it's. their right. kind of interest to kill a lot of people are using this. as sort of an agenda to not just call for those social justice this is a little to. go in central moscow thank you. britain has launched an investigation into the scandal involving oil traders and city speculators who allegedly rigged markets to hike up the pump prices at the soaring

cost of fuel in the u.k. so uproar among consumers already struggling with the country's double dip recession this report. the city is under fire again this time it's traders and speculators in for a grilling as the energy minister announces an investigation into raking over the petrol price it's meant fulls in the oil price on pulse on to consumers making petrol and diesel more expensive in real terms than they've ever seen pump prices quick to fill when the oil price rises very slow to full when it goes down petrol price campaign is calling on they found guilty of breaking the price to go to prison the scandal follows a huge rise in the price at the pump it's gone up ten p. since early july to around one pound forty elites and that high price builds of doubt into the entire economy ninety percent of everything we have in our homes is

delivered by laurie and with fuel prices so high school it's companies are full of to post that expense to consumers making literally everything food clothes domestic appliances more expensive it also impacts on labor mobility so how far people could travel to get to work and whether they can get new jobs that require traveling some distance to the fuel price can even ever on the unemployment rate which is hovering around eight percent at the moment what's not clear is what the alternative is speculating on what is the price of one of the consequences of free market capitalism which often results in corporations getting which sometimes at the expense of ordinary people so imprison the perpetrators they might use but it's unlikely to change much what it will do is divert attention from the government's after all sixty percent of the price consumers pay at the pump is taxed the highest

in europe. with reporting that when i still have for you. the right to tweet free of. the put not is there for the general public so just so if you look at it's going to be used against one court you know he should've said it you know he's going to incriminate himself presses unfolds as twitter is forced to surrender private records to a new york court we ask the people in the big city if they are concerned about their own internet freedoms plus. there's been an increase in illusion which is led to many health issues. in the loose a lot of breathing problems a london based enterprise targets a corner of india with promises of prosperity and progress however the true costs proved to be much higher the full story just ahead for you. now iranian oil is once again in demand despite an e.u. embargo and u.s.

sanctions the international energy agency says tehran sold more of crude in august than july despite being hit with even more international restrictions and the measures are aimed at forcing iran to end its nuclear program which tehran maintains is peaceful but now the agency says the oil sales are edging over a million barrels a day the country's resources are much in demand in turkey china and india currently the top importers meanwhile the u.s. treasury claims the sanctions are yielding results and eventually slashed iran's crude exports but the policy director of the national iranian american council says tehran nuclear ambitions will not be affected i don't know that you could actually look at the last revenues from oil exports and say iran has taken away money from its nuclear program or reduced money for military spending because frankly with the threat of war i think iran is probably continuing down the path that has already

already has been on with sanctions you know there's no perfect sanctions regime there's always going to be a whole series always going to be loopholes there's always going to be this game of whack a mole where iran responds and then the u.s. tries to. ratchet up and you're never going to get a perfect embargo so i think that the question is the question is ok now you have these sanctions what do we do with these are we going to leverage these or is this a repeat of what we had with iraq where we did a great job of restricting oil sales and then doing oil for food at the end of the day that didn't actually yield anything but massive humanitarian suffer suffering and then eventually this movement for disasters invasion. or the artsy world date time will start in madrid where tens of thousands of demonstrators from all across marching through the streets of madrid in protest against new economic reforms and the government is due to announce a fresh set of spending cuts by the end of the month the public sector workers fearing they'll be hit hardest by the latest round of austerity is expected to

boost spain's economy and keep it from seeking a multi billion euro bailout. the new u.n. envoy for syria says the crisis in the country is escalating and poses a danger to the entire world lock it up or he me right now in damascus already having met with president assad as well as other diplomats and opposition leaders about the rebels and government forces are still ignoring calls to end the fighting with battles continuing in syria's main cities including homes british activists say one hundred and sixty people were killed across the nation on friday. a new york criminal court has forced twitter to surrender the records of an occupy wall street protester was among those charged for blocking the brooklyn bridge last year the social network was threatened with fines if they didn't give in to the prosecutor's request for the tweets allegedly undermine the protesters claims that the police intentionally pushed the crowds onto the bridge only to arrest them for

obstructing traffic. now the battle for access to the activists attracted mass attention with many saying prosecutors are violating. laws so our resident a lawyer for the she hit the streets of new york to find out how people really feel about the virtual freedoms. a manhattan judge has ordered twitter to release the tweets of an occupy wall street protester and those tweets are expected to be used against him in a criminal trial is that an invasion of his privacy and right to free speech this week let's talk about that so let's say it was a terrorist saying ok let's go attack somebody what it was it was it was an american expressing his views. you know just trying to get his message out there ok some would call him a terrorist and a person that you might think is a terrorist might feel like they're just expressing them their needs and what

they're frustrated by. i don't know if we always seem to be you know. giving you information that you haven't been revealed yet or are broadcast yet so i appreciate your hope it never stops does he put out there to try to general public so to still feel ok that's going to be used against when court you know we shouldn't set it you know he's going to incriminate himself that's his own fault that what you say under free speech has to it should still be subject to law if i go on television and tell everybody how to avoid cops or to commit a crime and get away with it. on television you know smile felt i think the most interesting thing about twitter is if the internet is not journalism but writing is going to start to say more of a hold that it probably needs to be treated similar sue newspaper ads or other things that might be written in print media and so i'm not sure if twitter should give it up. if they want to start to grow i think they might have to do what about

that person's right to their own tweets and their privacy depends how serious the matter is i think yeah i think. who draws that line do you trust a government to draw that line i don't know if you don't want it in the public you don't put it out on the public. so yeah it's kind of a canvas screaming out a window if you're posting it on the internet. so things like most people agree because social media is taking on a more important role in social justice change and counterculture the laws around social media are going to have to evolve as well. thanks for joining us here on our suits a day when big business arrives in a small town a promise of employment an opportunity it's never far behind but when the dream turns sour and it's often the little people who are left to pick up the pieces. one

indian community who are refusing to back down. it's one of the most serene and sacred places in india me i'm gary hills home to the dong tribe three years thousands of tribal people here have been relocated by a london based conglomerate the vedanta group it wanted to mine into mountains considered sacred to extract the aluminum or box a for use in its refineries specially built nearby but the social and environmental costs have been high the income source with people from three hundred fifty villages have been destroyed so what will these people do they depend on the land and forest for their livelihood will be believe that their land is their mother father god we have a deep respect for their land but for now the indian government has kicked out saying the group has violated forest conservation and environmental protection laws

that. while some say india could stimulate its economy by accessing its natural resources the people in this community believe that their land is sacred and they're not going to let any foreign corporations come in and destroy it praful my haji says that vedanta took two acres of his land promised him compensation but that he never received anything and it's not just his communities environment that has been destroyed he says that the actions of the company have damaged the wellbeing of local people so there's been an increase in pollution which is led to many health issues that we've been experiencing on. the. breathing problems vedanta did not respond to our requests for comment but has said in the past that it believes it can make significant contributions to the people of the area and bring development to the region critics however say that hasn't happened most of the local people that we've spoken to feel that they've had promises made by the

company that have just been broken and that they only have they not received develop. from the company but fundamentally they do not want development in the company all they want is to be allowed to live their lives and pace the confrontation has received attention from high profile figures like movie director james cameron who compared the dispute to a real life avatar vedanta are trying to appeal the decision by the indian government in a bid to allow them to continue their work but for now local people are celebrating their victory in preserving their ancestral lands. we figured out who will work towards our development and who will not we want to live the way we did before vedantic came here and it seems like they might have the chance to do just that and the dungaree ican say they'll fight for what's there is no matter who they're up against preassure either r t india and i just a couple of minutes or an r.t. it'll be time for the juice news
